Chris,
Sorry to bother you again. I am looking at gtk+-3.8.2, the word "at-spi2" was
not mentioned in the whole source tree:
find . -type f | xargs grep "at-spi2"
Nothing returned. Whereas, 'atk-bridge' appeared in several places:
./configure: ATK_PACKAGES="atk atk-bridge-2.0"
./configure.ac: ATK_PACKAGES="atk atk-bridge-2.0"
./gtk/a11y/gtkaccessibility.c:#include <atk-bridge.h>
./gtk/gtkmodules.c: g_str_equal (name, "atk-bridge"))
./README: on the bus is now used by default; atk-bridge has been converted
./README: pass --without-atk-bridge when configuring GTK+.
./NEWS: on the bus is used by default (atk-bridge has been converted into
./NEWS: pass --without-atk-bridge when configuring GTK+.
In the configure.ac file, String: "atk atk-bridge-2.0" was assigned to Macro
ATK_PACKAGES
That was in turn assigned to GTK_PRIVATE_PACKAGES
The PKG_CECK_MODULES finally work on it and cause the problem.
The string "atk-bridge-2.0" was also hardcoded into a C-functions.
In version, GTK+ 3.5.6, the --without-akt-birdge configuraton option was
mentioned, but not working at this current version.
Even you use ./configure --without-atk-bridge, the configuration script is
still not working.
Will it be save to change the string value of atk-bridge to at-spi2 in the
autoconf system and the C-code?
I could not find a distribution web site for atk-bridge. This is rare. I did
managed to get an rpm package, and it was asking for very old packages:
rpm -i libatk-bridge-devel-2.8.1-1.mga4.i586.rpm
warning: libatk-bridge-devel-2.8.1-1.mga4.i586.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA1
Signature, key ID 80420f66: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:

devel(libgobject-2.0) is needed by libatk-bridge-devel-2.8.1-1.mga4.i586
I am not sure this rpm package is the right package or not.
I have installed all the other required packages needed by GTK+-3.8.
Do you happen to have a tarball for atk-bridge?
Thanks for your information again.
Regarding to autoconf, I have been using it for a long time. I would say, I
only know about 5% of the "autohell".
In the past, I always try to avoid autoconf as much as possible. Now, I am
planning to order a book and started to get deeper into this. I may have to
use it for my own projects.
